These beloved creations have become synonymous with joy and deliciousness, embodying Carvel's tradition of quality since its founding in 1929 by Tom Carvel. Starting with a humble ice cream truck in Hartsdale, New York, Tom Carvel's vision and dedication led to the establishment of fixed locations and the invention of soft serve desserts by 1934.

Carvel's marketing ingenuity, highlighted by Tom Carvel's distinctive voice and his heartfelt sign-off "Thank You," elevated Fudgie the Whale to fame in the 1970s, especially celebrated around Father's Day with the slogan "For a whale of a dad."

This chocolatey delight recently gained renewed attention after its appearance in Amazon's series "The Boys," where it became a memorable gift in the storyline, sparking curiosity and admiration among younger  viewers and those unfamiliar with this Empire state bi product.

Its inclusion in Season 4 , recently spiked a google trend of “Fudgie The Whale” with most “Googlers” wondering if the Delicious ice cream cake was in fact a real product…it is.
